C-Can we go higher—-

Oh?

–The small boy blinked, tilting his head as he clung on Rebecca’s waist and brushed his bangs out of his eyes then smiled sheepishly. Questions was something Wally was never good at… He’ll try his best however as he pondered with his eyebrows furrowed and had a such serious expression on his pale face.–

Um… Why did you… Became a pokemon trainer?

“Of course we can. You heard ‘im, Marshmallow.”

“Originally it was to go on an adventure with my Pokemon and work together. Then the Plasma incident happened and boy was that fun.”

There was a little sarcasm at the end there as she gave the Altaria a gentle pat as he gained altitude. Now they could see the whole Hoenn region.

“The region’s gorgeous today.”

timidpokemontrainer:

A-Ah!

–The boy gasped, feeling the wind on his face as the smile was still there and let out a joyous laugh that was so rare. So full of pure happiness as he held his arms wide and spread to as if he was pretending that he was flying too and he looked like the weight of the world was lifted off of his small shoulders. He didn’t hear Rebecca’s comment about getting sick as he enjoyed the ride.

Wally never felt so free and so… Content. Indeed, this was a new chapter that was now turned away from being isolated in the bed and being so lonely. He was with someone who knew the true meaning of freedom which meant a lot.–

Once her stomach settled, Rebecca let out a soft, excited laugh. She had always been asleep on her flights due to her airsickness so she never got to feel the wind in her short hair.

“It feels great up here!”

“Hey, Cuz? Since we’ll be up here for a while, y’can ask me whatever y’like.”

timidpokemontrainer:

H-Hello M-Marshmallow! It’s w-wonderful to see y-you again….

–The green haired boy laughed a bit at the affectionate bird pokemon, a hand raising to lay on the soft surface of the feathers as the smile got wider though it hurts his cheeks. The ralts just peered at Marshmallow rather warily and nervous then tilted his head as Wally sat with Rebecca then petted on the ralts’s head to comfort then took Ralts back in the ultraball.–

I-It’s okay, f-friend.  You’ll feel better back in your pokeball…

Rebecca looked a little ill as Marshmallow started flying up towards the sky to get some altitude.

“Boy it’s a good thing I finally found airsickness meds before I left, otherwise Marshmallow would have to have me sleep so I don’t yack on ‘im.”

The Altaria sung gratefully, flapping his wings as he flew.

timidpokemontrainer:

Y-Yes…

–They went to get Wally’s suitcases then said goodbye to the emotional parents then they were outside as Wally held the ralts close to his chest and nuzzled into him gently.

When Marshmallow landed on the ground as Wally’s eyes widened in awe with the ralts peeking out of his arms. What a beautiful bird pokemon! It was majestic and elegant by the way this bird pokemon moved and looked… So amazing.–

O-Oh!

Marshmallow dipped his head to look at Wally before softly cooing and preening Wally’s hair. Rebecca chuckled with a bright grin.

“He still likes ya, Cuz’.”

“Up y’get.”

She helped her cousin up onto Marshmallow’s back, the Altaria still gently preening Wally’s hair. Once she got on as well, Marshmallow carefully lifted off, his feet holding Wally’s luggage.

–The shaky boy leaned into the hug from the proud veteran as he smiled widely with tears still in his eyes. Wally was truly proud for once that he did something on his own… He watched Rebecca as he had this warm feeling that spread in his chest and his smile only got bigger.  

When she laid the ball on his palm, the fingers wrapped around the ultra ball as he rested his lips on it and murmured a thank you then… He let the ralts out that was now in his arms. The sickly boy couldn’t help but hug his new friend rather affectionate and gentle as he felt the tiny hand resting on his chin.–

Thank you, Ralts.

Thank you for choosing me… I’ll do my best to be the best partner.

It was almost magical when she saw children really connect with their partners for the first time.

“Y’will, Cuz’. Now let’s get your stuff and get going, sound good?”

She gently ruffled his hair and offered him her hand to hold. They’d get Wally’s bags and get on Marshmallow, who was currently circling around Petalburg, for the long flight back to Undella.

timidpokemontrainer:

O-Okay! H-Here I go…

–Wally took a deep breath as he went in and held the ultra ball close with his eyes scanning for that ralts then instantly the ralts was there with a inviting smile. All right…–

I-I have to throw a ball at it r-right? H-Here I go.

–The timid beginner held the device up and threw it at the ralts all with his might as he hoped with all hope in his heart he could muse that he’ll get a friend. And… The ralts went in the ball, falling down to the dirt and wobbled with loud beeps that made Wally uneasy. It felt as if he was waiting forever but it was only few moments...-

Beep… Beep…

D-Did… I caught it?

–The ball stopped moving as it stayed still and Wally’s heart skipped a beat when he realized he caught his friend… That made the small boy tear up with a smile broadened on his pale face as his body shook with great relief.–

I…I-I did it…!

I-I’m so happy….!

Rebecca was there with a proud smile, walking up to him and giving her cousin a warm hug.

“I’m proud of you, Cuz’.”

“Great job.”

She gently ruffled his fluffy hair, her words soft and quiet before she went over to the ultra ball and picked it up. She went back over to her cousin and gently took his hand, putting the ultra ball in it, her proud smile never fading once.

timidpokemontrainer:

O-Ouch…

–The timid boy grimaced in sympathy then blinked as he looked out at the tall tree and swallowed nervously. He then thought as he looked around… Wally hoped that… ‘They’ll like me— but what if I mess up and make them unhappy…?’ All Wally wanted was a pokemon- No. A friend. A friend that he could have as a partner… Just a friend— Wally spotted a tiny pokemon peeking out from the tall grasses with a tiny smile as if he knew what the sickly boy was thinking. This moment, he felt instantly connected to this pokemon.–

…

–The small ralts disappeared, beckoning Wally to follow as he took a step forward and hestitated but… Wally wanted him as his friend and his first friend. Then he looked at Rebecca timidly and swallowed nervously.-

I-I’m going in the tall grass now…

–The timid boy went into the tall grass but then peeked out with flushed cheeks nervously.–

You-You have to watch, o-ok? 

Rebecca saw the look on Wally’s face, recognizing it as the same one she herself had made when she had met Marshmallow. When he poked his head out of the grass again, she gave him a smile and pat his head encouragingly.

“I’m watchin’, Cuz’. Not gonna look away. You can do this, alright?”

“Good luck and don’t get frustrated.”

She ruffled his hair and took a step back to give him room.

timidpokemontrainer:

N-Norman!?

–The sickly kid squeaked out at the laid back girl and he nearly wheezed as the parents looked at him worried that he would have a asthma attack but instead Wally tried to calm himself down and took a deep breath before managing a shaky smile at the gym leader and bowed to him with his cheeks burning. How horrible he was to not to acknowledge this amazing gym leader! Then he nodded to his older cousin timidly and held on the ultra balls shakily. –

Y-Yes…

–Wally followed the veteran, eyes down to the ground as he timidly peeked and spotted her scarred hands though it was really faint yet clear as day. That made him concerned as he moved his pale hand to lay on the tanned and scarred hand of the cousin.–

W-What happened to your h-hands…?

“Oh, this? Small Cheri juice accident. A berry grew more fragile than the other and popped when I tried to pick it. No worries, I’m fine. S’better than ten years ago, that’s for sure.”

She gave her cousin a bright smile, gently holding his hand as they walked out into Route 102. She had almost forgotten about her burn scars and they didn’t really bother her like they did when they were still healing.

“Alright, I’m sure it was around here somewhere…”

timidpokemontrainer:

R-Really?!

A-Ah…

–The small boy’s eyes widened in awe as tears formed in his eyes and he just sniffled loudly before a curled hand rose up to wipe these tears away quickly with a tiny smile as if he was relieved that his cousin didn’t say no. He bowed to Rebecca politely to thank her and to his parents.

But he was still confused about that kind man who just smiled as he looked up shyly at him. Wally never really gets any visitors aside family members and their pokemon so this was new.–

“Would you like to accompany us, oh great Gym Leader Norman?”

Rebecca grinned at the man next to her, who looked away with a sheepish expression.

“Apologies, I cannot accompany you both into the route. However, I do give my permission for you two to be out there.”

“Aw, you’re no fun, y’old stick in the mud.”

The champion chuckled with a grin and gently pat Wally’s head again.

“Let’s head out, Cuz’. There’s a ‘mon out there that I think you’d love.”

timidpokemontrainer:

–Wally couldn’t believe it! He was going to go live with his cousin who was a retired pokemon master! His parents told him how clean and wonderful the place was for Wally to live with… But.. Wally wanted to catch a pokemon! So the sickly boy made his mind up to catch a pokemon with the help of his cousin’s before they leave…

The timid boy marched downstairs with his suitcase as he tried to hold his head high with his chest puffed up though he was shaking slightly from being nervous at the fact he was going to talk with a real living person that was a pokemon master! He closed his bright blue eyes as he took a deep breath and went in the living room to the woman sitting on the couch chatting with his parents and…A familiar man? But neverthless, Wally blurted out to his cousin as he got to her side with a nervous expression on his face.–

E-Excuse me… C-Cousin…

B-Before… We g-go to y-your home…C-Can I-I catch a p-puh-pokemon?

Oh god her cousin was cuter than when he was a kid, how was that possible. She gave him a simple nod, patting his head and offering him some of her spare, empty Ultra Balls from her Bag.

“Sure, Cuz’. I don’t see why we can’t. Hold onto these while I ask if we can pop out to the nearest route.”

She turned to his parents, adjusting her headphones as she asked for permission to take Wally out to the previous route. There was a Pokemon she saw there that he might like, she had already caught one of them herself.
